GTW 4934
Title:  GTW 4934
Description:  CN local passes Kimberly-Clark Corp., Neenah Nonwovens Facility, as it makes the short trip back to the former SOO yard after servicing Galloway Co. via former C&NW rails at Neenah, WI on 17 Mar. '14. These rails are part of the remnants of the C&NW mainline through Neenah and Menasha. I’m not sure if this facility receives rail service or not. It definitely used to because has 3 indoor spurs at the southwest end of the building. These covered hoppers are stored on the remnants of a small staging yard C&NW used to service several customers on this end of town (the remnants of one of the turnouts can be seen in the foreground).
